I am using Alex Pepper's Vehicle Explorer. I checked his website yesterday and discovered that I haven't upgraded the software for a long time (maybe a year?) I was surprised to find out that his program now supports some Volvo-specific trouble codes. I never thought he would get to Volvo-specific enhanced codes anytime soon. Most of his initial upgrades were for -- surprise, surprise! -- BMW and Honda ownwers. (Or should I say racers?) Anyway I downloaded the latest version of the software and tried reading the codes again. This time the software did return the trouble code: P0442, Evaporative Emission Control System Leak Detected (small leak.) I was also able to reset the CHECK ENGINE light on the dashboard. Will wait and see if it comes back again anytime soon. (At least it's not caused by PNP switch!)
